Hi everyone!
First, sorry for the lack of blog post on Friday - you’ll be able to tell why after reading this blog post! It’s going to be a long-un’ so if you’re into listening jabber on then sit back and get comfy and read on! Also, I’d like to point out it took me about 5 attempts to write this as Weebly kept crashing, then my internet wouldn't work so the drafts were lost into the internets web… Cry. So it has resulted in my writing this on Pages (blog-ception)

Firstly on this agenda is me currently being ill. I caught this cough off someone around college (theres always something going around) and I noticed it when coming back on the train on Wednesday and it was one of those moments when you go “oh brilliant I can tell I’m getting sick.” So when I got back from college, I started getting a migraine which lasted until Friday - eugh. It felt like it was going to be a normal cough and cold and I’d get over it, but Thursday morning, my throat started throbbing and I thought “oh brilliant, tonsillitis.” I havent had it for a few years now, and the fact that it felt like I was getting my old enemy back again after all those years just put me in a really groggy mood throughout the week. So most nights I was coming home and going straight into bed to watch Netflix and then going to sleep. Hence why I didn't have any beauty post for Friday because A) I hadn’t planned anything or B) I looked awful and couldn't trial or show anything what I wanted to do! But now, its going through the cold stage - coughing and spluttering and lots of tissues (ew.) Hopefully this week I’ll be back to my normal self and have a lot more energy to do stuff!
Next, I have some happy news. If you can remember back that far, I wrote my new years resolutions for 2015 on a blog post in the first week of 2015. One of them was along the lines of “getting fitter” in which I wanted to lose a bit of weight (especially my Christmas weight…jheez!) So I started being a little more active, such as doing a bit more swimming, running (not a lot because I really don’t enjoy it!) and Zumba on the Wii - yes something embarrassing, but it really has helped. Along with this, I started watching what I ate and swapping my meals for healthy alternatives. This also meant that I was sticking to my three meals a day and avoiding to snack in between meals. The first few days were difficult I must admit - I started eating Alpen cereal in the mornings and the first two days were horrible and I was trying my best not to gag and the horrible texture. But now, I can’t go my mornings without it! Although I have been trying my best to do all this, I’ve been out for the past two weeks: firstly I pulled my left shoulder and couldn't move it very much and then I got sick! Hopefully this week I will get back into the swing of things. But even if I have been out - I have finally reached my goal weight: I went from 73kg at the start of the year and I now weigh a happy and healthy roughly 68kg. It may not sound light, but because I’m fairly tall, the weight does add up! Im extremely happy with how well I’ve done and Im going to go back to a normal diet now, but not go overboard with all the sugary snacks!
General update: college life is going well at the moment! I’,m up to date with all my work currently - I’m trying to do it as soon as I get it so I dont have anything to worry about during the weekend. I think the coursework load is going to get a lot bigger since A level final exams are coming up, and since I wont be taking part in any exams (woohoo!) they’re going to make us work just as hard - which I’m not too fussed about.
Anyways besides from that, thats about everything that I’d like to share with you! Again apologies for the lack of post last week, I promise to try and get something up this Friday for you all! This week I will try and trial some new blog posts for you guys to receive more content from this site. Thank you all for reading and as always,
See you in the next blog post,
